This is a bit of a long shot here seeing as 4 hasn't been around that long
but I'll give it a go anyway. I'm building a plugin, ppg as part of it,
using PPGlayout and adding callback functions to the ppglayout items and
buttons. Calbacks take the form <itemBane>_Onclick() and they're normally a
part of the plugin script. There's also PPGLayout.logic where you can add
callback functions as strings. The former would be the preferred method but
if you're building ppg layouts on the fly and only know the names of the
items at build time then ppglayout.logic is the only way. My query is about
what happens if you want to mix in-script callback logic with
ppglayout.logic. In other words, if part of your ppglayout calls callbacks
from the plugin file but you have a few ppglayout items that need to be
built on the fly. It seems that setting PPGLayout.logic wipes out all the
plugin script callbacks. Does anyone have any bright ideas about how to
handle this?
cheers,
K.
